Hominess Happiness

Just a couple of things I did today. Anyway, we are back in Granite Falls for those of you who haven't heard yet. We came back last Sunday because the DNR wants them to stop the project for a while due to the moisture content being too high. I'll say that I'm a little bit on the glad side, but I know it is kind of an irritation for Seth when things are delayed. He's such a good sport though and takes everything in stride. What a wonderful man! Now we should be back so that Kevin can hopefully be born in Granite Falls like we had planned. It has been fun getting everything set up and ready for his arrival! Only a little ways away now. I was talking to my mom this morning and we were saying how 2007 has been such an eventful year for our family. Seth and I were married at the beginning of the year, my parents will be grandparents now, and Christa is getting married in December. Two weddings and a baby all in the same year! Such exiting times! Thank you to those of you who have remembered us in your prayers. I was blessed on Sunday afternoon during our prayer service when I had finished praying because over and over I could hear people praying for Seth and Kevin and I - not just for a healthy delivery, but also for wisdom for us as a family. What a blessing to know that we are being lifted up before God's throne of grace for strength and wisdom. Well, I'm not sure how many more tummy tally's I'll get in before the big day - I can assure you that they will stop once he's born! Although what a good way to try and get back in shape! I have a lot of work to do (and sadly, no volleyball practice to make me have to push myself the way I need to). More blogging for another time.

I am so glad that you are finally back home...and for a good long while, I hope! God's providences are kind. Isn't it good to know that He can bring you back to your home at just the right time to give you some days of preparing for Kevin?! It's amazing how enjoyable laundry and baking are once you are back in your own sweet home. I hope you enjoy these last days of carrying your baby inside of you. Hopefully he waits to come until after Christa's shower. ;) I will be praying for you as you prepare for delivery. Talk to you later, friend. ~'::

I can't imagine how good it must feel to be home after your extended absence!

Thank you so much for the passage you reminded me of in your comment on my blog! I immediately looked it up and read it again and felt so encouraged to know that you were praying for us in such a way!

Love you!

How fun it must be to be back home! What fun to set things up for little Kevin! I can't even imagine how fun that would be! You will continue to be in my prayers, both now and after Kevin is born!
